The Clean Energy Frontier program from the Nuclear Innovation Institute has won an award for its Rural Planning and Strategy.
The award is from the Economic Developers Council of Ontario.
It’s the second EDCO Award of Excellence for the program.
The program is active in promoting Bruce, Grey, and Huron counties and local Indigenous communities both locally and across the province as the Clean Energy Frontier region, citing the economic impact and business opportunity in this sector to support investment attraction.
Jessica Linthorne, Director of the Clean Energy Frontier program, says that
John Peevers, Director, Community, Media Relations & Economic Development at Bruce Power and Co-Chair of the Clean Energy Frontier program, said the recognition for the strategy is particularly rewarding as it acknowledges the amount of work done behind the scenes to ensure the region benefits from the economic opportunities created, in part, by Bruce Power’s Life Extension Program.
The EDCO Awards of Excellence is an annual program that aims to seek distinctive ideas and initiatives that can become economic development best practices of the future.
